This episode is brought to you by the NCRTD Blue Bus.

This week on "Voices of Taos," please enjoy this repeat presentation of a conversation between Laura Martin Baseman and J.R. Logan, Taos County Forest and Watershed Health Program Manager. Logan shares how his experience at the Taos News and the LOR Foundation laid the groundwork for his current role managing natural resources through contracts with Taos Soil and Water Conservation District and Taos County.

One of the projects Logan helps coordinate is the Forest Mayordomo Program, which employs locals adjacent to Carson National Forest to thin areas at risk of severe fire. Even with good management, Logan candidly warns that Taos County will likely see a catastrophic fire in the near future. He hopes this honesty won't paralyze people with fear, but encourages them to prepare. There are a lot of things people can do to protect their homes and land, including visiting the New Mexico State Forestry website on defensible space.

On Saturday, March 7, the Del Fuego Project invites the community to an interactive evening of film, dialogue and reflection on the role of wildfires in shaping Northern New Mexico. The event will be held at the TCA from 7 to 8:30 p.m.. You can reserve your seat at tcataos.org/calendar.
